Trust

The act of trusting is so personal, so close, and so painful
It is like giving someone your life, your heart, your being.
You wonder if you can live without those things.
Can you survive?

When trust is broken you die inside. Part of you is gone forever.
It hurts like a limb being ripped off you, you can continue living but it’s hard.
In doing so you become cautious, worried to ever trust again.
Can you survive?

You try again, getting up, desperate to find that one person who you can trust.
It’s like hitting your head against a wall, painful and stupid.
We keep trying, keep hoping, and keep praying.
